Answer 2

Establishing martial law in peacetime.

Imprisoning people without just cause.

Raising taxes without Parliament approval.

Step-by-step explanation:

The June 1628 Petition of Rights was a document in relation to the constitutional affairs during the rule of Charles I. This document would later become an official 'declaration' of rights for the common people with regards to some of the 'outrageous' demands of the monarch.

This petition aims to stop the king/ monarch from making any taxation on the people without providing proper representation for them in Parliament. It also demanded a rule that prevents him from capturing and imprisoning people without a just cause. Moreover, it also states that the king cannot establish martial law, be it of any form, during peacetime.
